Customize blog post display in Share Point 2013 in Cloud

Question

Hi,
I am trying to modify look of the blog post (single post entry), but running into issues.
This is the full scenario I am trying to accomplish:
I have custom content type that extends post with few fields that I need in order to pull specific post entries on different pages(this is not an issue).
I have Yes/No field for post in the blog to allow or disallow comments.
If the check box is set to No I don't want to display anything that would have to do with the comments.
Idea is to use overrideCtx but in order to be able to check the value of the Yes/No column I need to add it to the Current View, this is where the problem starts.
Any time I modify the current view and add a field the title and body of the post entry are no longer displayed on the page and there is no way for me to change it back.
Anybody has any ideas why is this happening, or was trying to do something simillar?
Thanks

Unfortunately the javascript (example above) didn't work for me. 
What I end up doing is (separate js so the code can be changed and reused for multiple blog sites) and reference it in the Content Editor:
(function () {
var overrideCtx = {};
overrideCtx.Templates = {};
overrideCtx.Templates.Fields = {'Body':{'View': CBody}};
SPClientTemplates.TemplateManager.RegisterTemplateOverrides(overrideCtx);
function CBody(ctx) {
var items = ctx.CurrentItem;
var ret = ctx.CurrentItem.Body;
if(ctx.CurrentItem['AllowPost'] == 'Yes'){
_spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push("hideComments");
return ret;
function hideComments(){
//look for elements with specific IDs and Classes to hide
I am wondering if there is shorter way so I don't have to call _spBodyOnLoad so it doesn't add too much overhead
If anyone know better way let me know?
Thanks
